Copy-trading risks
Stub article — full content coming soon.
Copying another trader does not copy their risk tolerance, capital, or timing. Key risks:
- Slippage & lag — you fill after the leader, at a worse price.
- Leverage mismatch — the same position is riskier on a smaller account.
- Selection bias — a great 30-day record can be luck, not skill.
This is why the dashboard ranks traders with risk-aware models rather than raw PnL — see how we rank traders.
